Indonesian Netizens On A Mission To Support Putri Ariani, The Blind Singer Who Received AGT's Golden Buzzer

America's Got Talent (AGT), an American reality television series, is a talent show that features singers, dancers, magicians, comedians, and other performers of all ages competing for a top prize.

What debuted in 2006, have given significant reach to talented and unknown performers, with results that are mostly affected by the audience's votes.

And at the show, the Golden Buzzer is a concept that a judge can directly send a performer straight to the live shows.

And in Season 18, where the Audience Golden Buzzer was introduced, Simon Cowell pressed it for 17-year-old blind Indonesian singer Putri Ariani.

The audience shed their tears as they heard Putri sang with her angel-like voice.

Putri is a blind singer and pianist from Indonesia.

"My dream is to become the biggest diva in the world, like Whitney Houston, and win a Grammy Award," she said to the audience. "I hope I can win America’s Got Talent so I can reach my dream."

By making her first trip to the U.S., she auditioned for AGT Season 18, Episode 1802, where she sang Loneliness, while playing the piano, that captivated the audience.

Cowell, as well as Howie Mandel, Heidi Klum and Sofia Vergara, were in for quite a shock.

After the performance, Simon went up on stage, and asked her if she could sing something else. Simon also asked Putri's father for permission.

Cowell asked this because he loved her first one so much.

Putri agreed to perform another song, dedicated it "special for you Simon," by singing Elton John's Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word.

Moved by the performance for the second time in a row, Simon hit the Golden Buzzer, sending her directly to the semifinals.

In another shocking move, the British talent finder again made his way once again onto the stage to share with Putri how special she is.

Tears fell down Putri's cheeks.

Simon Cowell couldn't he happier, and so do Putri's parents.

And so do Indonesians on the web.

This is because Indonesians on the internet come in huge numbers.

As an archipelago country in Southeast Asia, Indonesia has more than 280 million people as population. More than 200 million of them are active internet users.

While opinions may differ and that trolls are always around, there are moments when Indonesian netizens unionize for one common purpose.

When those moments happen, they can disrupt, if not change things.

In the past, Indonesian netizens have forced Microsoft to disable its Instagram comment box, and bombarded Korean actress with hates for being a "pelakor", and are supportive of their governments were hacked by hackers from foreign countries.

Many of them also unite when celebrity sex tapes were leaking, and many of the leaks become worldwide trending topics on various social media because of the numbers of Indonesians discussing them.

Indonesian netizens have also supported justice, like during Ferdy Sambo's case, the disgraced Indonesian Police General who murdered his own bodyguard, and the Mario Dandy Satriyo's assault case because of a girl, which made Indonesians refused to pay tax.

Indonesian netizens are known for putting justice in their own hands. While many are somewhat anti-heroes, pesky, and downright cruel while being haters, sometimes, they can show extreme support to their beliefs.

This time, Putri Ariani has once again unite Indonesian netizens on the web.

Putri, who has become the first Indonesian to ever received the Golden Buzzer from AGT, received high appraisal from Indonesian netizens, and beyond

Not only that the YouTube video from American Got Talents received more than 70% of its comments from Indonesia, Putri Ariani has also become a trending topic on various other social platforms and media.

Putri, a gifted teenage multihyphenate musician has lofty ambitions. She has set her heart on Juilliard for college.

Having the voice of a 'angel,' as judge Sofia Vergara puts it, Putri played her own acoustic piano. But what really intrigued the judges, especially Simon, is her first singing performance that turned out to be an original song.

The first song she sang, is actually a song she created herself.

It was realized that not only she sang well, but she's also a composer, a music writer.

After losing her vision the age of 3 months, after she was diagnosed with Cataract, following her premature birth, Putri began her act singing at the age of 2. Her first public performance was when she was 7.

If that is not enough for an introduction, the rest is just pure talent.

She won Indonesia's Got Talent in 2014 at the age of 8 and had some streaming success on Spotify.

"When I’m singing I feel like a superstar," she said.

Cowell, the 63-year-old TV personality, couldn't agree more.
